draymon posterized.
Seriously though, I love the DG was posterized too. So much to love about that play. I love the DG still had a bunch of blocks that game because he has no fear, he doesn't fear getting dunked on despite being undersized he keeps making an effort and can live with the fact that helping his team as one of the greatest 6'7" shot blockers of all time you will on occasion get completely posterized!
ya reminds me of alonzo mourning.. he's been dunked on so many times, but that's because he'd go up and challenge pretty much every dunk. I respect that alot more than moving out of the way.

Also love that the underrated Adams got a chance to show out what a beast he is. I thought about how the commentary blamed OKC about how they lost cause KD and RW were playing "hero ball" and realized that the reason they play such blatant hero ball is because they usually don't get punished for it because of their selfless supporting cast... I mean how many times does Roberson or Adams or somebody convert an airball or bad miss into a bucket or extra possession? These guys are so good at cleaning up the glass that a bad miss is hardly disincentivised... Nice to see the major improved Steven Adams get a chance to shine once in awhile!
adams is straight up rugged.
two bigs that emerged during this year's playoffs:
- steven adams & bismack biyombo
good point.. and I mean who else does OKC even have that is a consistent scorer? OKC is far better off if they get waiters/ibaka/adams involved more offensively but those guys aren't consistent enough to do that every game.
OKC pretty much had that game. The real "hero ball" issue, to me, is when WB/KD (mostly WB) have sloppy turnovers at the end.. they had a few major turnovers at the end of game 6 that just did them in.. for the most part, that was really just great defense by igoudala though.
video update, since the other got removed:
